“Napoleon, I could use some advice on the last gift I need to buy.”

“Yes?”

‘I would like to find Mrs. Waverly a Christmas gift.  She has treated me kindly since I arrived.”

“Give something that’s special to you.”

“I do not want to give offense.”

‘Make it something unique, perhaps from your culture.”

Illya thought about the beautiful things his mother had made for Christmas.

“Thank you.  I know what to give.”

On Christmas Eve, Mrs. Waverly opened a brightly wrapped box.  “Oh my, it beautiful.”

Inside was an engraved Ukrainian ornament—“To one who has shown me kindness, INK.”

thanks, I always find the simple things that mean something to the one giving it is so much more enjoyable and appreciated. Merry Christmas
